Bridge strike warning system
Our award-nominated camera system reads bridge signs, spots bridges, automatically detects vehicle height, and alerts drivers 90% more accurately than legacy systems.
Accurate, AI-powered detection
The system reads bridge height signs and cross-references them with GPS data and automatic vehicle height detection.
No manual input required
RFID sensors automatically know vehicle height, removing guesswork around trailer swaps, variable loads, or unfamiliar routes.
Full incident recording
Exeros VideMatics captures every collision and near-miss event, giving managers HD footage for investigations and coaching.
Reliable warnings when it counts
GPS-only warning systems generate tons of irrelevant alerts, covering bridges on adjacent roads and outdated maps. Our proven system combines AI camera vision, GPS, and automatic vehicle height to only warn about genuine risks.
Automatic vehicle height
Expecting drivers to recall precise vehicle or load heights while driving an HGV or bus introduces unnecessary risk. We use RFID sensors to automatically detect vehicle height and compare it against bridge clearance in real time, removing the need for guesswork.
Show, don't tell
When coaching drivers on bridge strikes, showing them near misses or collisions from your own fleet is significantly more impactful than standardised training. The Exeros Bridge Strike Warning System automatically records a short clip during events, uploading it along with GPS location, journey context, and vehicle data.
Built for any vehicle
RFID sensors automatically detect the vehicle’s height, eliminating the need for manual driver input.
The system cross-checks AI camera data against GPS positioning and known low-bridge locations.
Customisable alert format, including audio, visual, voice, or haptic (seat vibration).
Access collision and near-miss footage in Exeros VideMatics, along with journey context, GPS data, and timestamps.
By combining live AI vision, automatic height, and GPS, the system eliminates the alert fatigue that makes GPS-only systems ineffective.
The system works as a standalone solution or connected to the Exeros ecosystem, including ADAS, fatigue detection, and SkEye View 360°.

FAQ
Questions about the platform, privacy, and how it works for your fleet
The system combines AI camera vision, GPS cross-referencing, and automatic vehicle height detection via RFID sensors to identify genuine low-bridge risks. When a risk is detected, the driver receives a configurable in-cab alert with up to 90% greater accuracy than GPS-only systems.
GPS-only systems generate frequent false alarms by alerting drivers to bridges on adjacent roads and using outdated mapping data. Exeros combines live camera detection of bridge signage and structures with real-time GPS and automatic vehicle height, so warnings are based on actual risk rather than proximity alone.
Exeros uses RFID sensors to automatically set and detect the vehicle's current height, removing the need for drivers to manually input or recall dimensions. This is particularly important with trailer swaps or variable loads, where manual errors are common and consequences are costly.
A bridge strike can result in significant repair costs billed by Network Rail, Traffic Commissioner reviews that put operator licences at risk, vehicle damage, route closures, missed deliveries, and reputational damage. A single incident can run to six figures in direct and indirect costs.
Yes. The Exeros Bridge Strike Warning System can be deployed as a standalone solution or integrated with the wider Exeros ecosystem, including VideMatics, ADAS, fatigue detection, and SkEye View 360°. All near-miss and collision events are recorded with HD footage, GPS data, and journey context for coaching and reporting.
